We look back with someone who was there. Tad Mosel is a writer who got his start writing screenplays for early television- Playhouse 90, Studio One, and the other famous anthologies. He worked with writers like Rod Sterling and actors like Paul Newman and Jessica Tandy. He talks about the excitement of live television, its demise, and television today.
